Truth In The Tasting

Short
is most sweet
when the sugar
is pure
Its message
like honey
when added
to lure
The Mime
as your server
with candy
implied
Truth
in the tasting
its richness
— to hide

A little drizzle of honey

A heart with pure intent

The fragrant scent of flowers

Sweetness ever present

Junio

Junio.
En cada onda, una vida.
Recuerdo entonces lo que puedo ver en ellas.
Sonará ridículo cuánto pienso en lo que llamas defectos,
porque cada marea, con raíces de sentimientos, me hace llorar.
Y yo no lloro.
Paredes marcadas. Fueron, alguna vez, el tallado de la felicidad de amantes ajenos, lejanos.
Creo que tendremos una próxima parada.
Estoy convencida.
Con mis dedos aún calientes por tus besos
tocaré la corteza del árbol en el que nos sentamos aquel día.
Cuando el error caiga,
verás la perspectiva de tu amada.
El defecto se vuelve historia.
Aprendiste a tocar lo que odiabas: los rizos escandalosos,
la sonrisa borrosa después del adiós,
el amor y el odio.
Creer en el sentimiento: desgastante en tus ojos,
cercano en los ajenos.
El creer, presente,
te obliga a amar más allá de quien crees merecedor de ello.

sweet liquid

I feel this wave of rage
why put yourself inside that cage
turing you in sweet liquid
bottled perfume with you in it

they sell you for a lesser price
cross the counter to lesser wives
even when they smell like you 
there better lies will shine through

and I’m left in this room
with an empty bottle of perfume
still your stuck in my nose
in my mind and in my clothes

Premium MemberLonging for closure

sweet tender words may suffice
dreams have a life of their own
only actions go the distance

Premium MemberBreath of Sweet Season

back door breeze.
  relief from sophistry.
    sounds of ink
      dipping into darkness.
        I see moonbows,
         or I’d like to; believe
           in wings of brightness,
            breath of sweet season.
             quicksand takes my breath.
               soothing tunes of velvet
                 like romantic violins
                   reel me in; I need briskness -
                     a cold blast. I need leaves
                       to relieve my melancholia.
                         don’t refuse me the hues
                           of Autumn, a drift of falling.

Distance Between Us Is But A Glimpse Of The Moon

I search the heavens for a trace of you,
Only to find your shadow in the lunar glow.
Its silver gaze stirs memories anew,
A lantern lit for hearts, only those longing...know.

Though oceans swell and continents divide,
Time has sealed the pathways we once knew,
Yet the moon still carries whispers to my side—
Distance between us is but a glimpse of the moon.

It shines for both, though miles apart we stand,
A bridge of light no darkness can erase.
I reach for you with memory’s gentle hand,
And touch your soul within that glowing face.

So long as moonlight crowns the endless skies,
Our love endures, where death itself denies.

LOVING YOU

My Breath, my love, you are always here in my thoughts and in my heart. I feel you near and how you care. 
Your love is like the breath of air; it flows back and forth into my life like we are one. 
Love I can feel you near, hugging me like only true love can. 
Feeling you kiss me makes me feel so happy it makes me smile all through my day. 
Love you are so sweet, my shining star, you make me so happy I could weep tears of joy. 
Walking hand in hand through this life, makes me know that all of my life is alright with you by my side. 
Love is like the feeling that we feel, it is like the love from God that brought us here. It shines so bright in our heart and mind that we feel it with just a thought of the one we love so dear. 
Loving you is so much fun, it has brought me a feeling that is better than any other love. Your love makes me feel anew, and makes me want to try all things new. 
Loving you is like fresh snow, it feels so pure and new, making me want to feel you close all through the moments in life. 
Love like ours that shines so bright, making its way like the morning light, gives me the feeling of you by my side. 
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.

Letters Lift Me

Letters lift me 
When my world drowns
Hearing smiles in her voice
I know love exists

Cherish every minute
Days, weeks, hours
Counting as she sleeps
Waiting for her to wake

Breathing small hours
As our paths align
Brushing through our destiny
Drinking outrageous fortune

Our cores braided 
Bodies untouched
Searing blood in our veins
Heavenly tides of emotions

Transparent hearts
Hewn of fire and glass
Fusing with critical mass
An indivisible new shape

Premium MemberMore Than A Soft Toy


My teddy bear is antique
He has lived a long life
and is a bit worn
Despite its appearance
there is never any doubt
on who owns him

I got it from my grandmother
when I was born
The cradle of nostalgia
unforgettable memories
He has been with me all my life
and is my best friend

The teddy bear is made of soft
and lovely fabric
that feels wonderful to hug and cuddle

My cuddly teddy bear has been 
absolutely invaluable through thick and thin
It is my emotional anchor
when anxiety or sad thoughts appear

A soft toy ? - ... significantly much more

LOVE FORGIVE

Love forgive and let go of all the negative feelings, they weight on life and give us no rest. 
Love forgive, and feel good, do not carry heavy thoughts in your heart for they are no good.  
Love forgive, let it go, do not let it keep you in a bad mood. 
Love forgive and open up your heart, let it heal and make you feel well. 
Love forgive and do it for you, let peace and joy grow and make the day feel swell. 
Love forgive, let love grow, and let the bad go and never grow. 
Love forgive for love is the key to all your joy and sweet memories. 
Love you forever my love, may your day be as lovely as you are my sweet. 
Lifting prayer to God, today and always.

Atta-Gal I'm your Man tonight

The perfect indication
a smirk, with some flirtation
a special night
for dating
do you wanna dance with me

Suggestive comments got me thinking
that atta-bouis
and all that winking
laning on me
got me thinking
you wanna dance with me

aint got the right stuff for staying
work in the morning my Boss aint
playing
But you got me wanting
some forward thinking
the night aint through
when the band finishes playing

I got a kiss
after a whisper
the gentlemen said
she called me her Mister
Right night
the romance of the mmusic
dancing
smiling and grooving
what a night
what a romantic evening
got a foolish man
beleiving
take my time
clm all the feelings
freshen up for a specail evening

Premium MemberSweet Baby Raja

More than a pet, Raja is our baby.                         
He fills all family hearts with true joy.                   
His luxurious fur is a lush touch.			
More than a pet, Raja is our baby.			
A true sidekick, he helps very much.		
Our love keeps growing for our sweet boy.		
More than a pet, Raja is our baby.			
He fills all family hearts with true joy.		

Raja wants to be wherever we are.
He is quite verbal and smart as a whip.
Our family life is his cloud nine.
Raja wants to be wherever we are.
He does not know he is a feline.
Since Raja heels he may go on a trip.
Raja wants to be wherever we are.
He is quite verbal and smart as a whip.

Premium MemberSweet tarts Rondine

Circling the drain my world’s changing,
trying to salvage the best parts.
Naiveté and those soft hearts,
they slide down disintegrating. 
The hardest fist is now banging,
this is how sour becomes sweet tarts.
Circling the drain,
a potent aroma’s stinging.
Dingy is how all the growth starts,
everything’s fresh after cleaning.
With focus you’re harshly scrubbing,
circling the drain.
